The "hot fusioneers" have been at it a LOT longer, spent probably 1000X as much money, and produced less. LENR has had to try to "do science" on a pittance, and with the active opposition of the "hot fusioneers" and their allies not because their science is bad (if you think otherwise, you are simply ignorant of the science), but because LENR threatens their whole moneybags house of cards.
I’ll believe in LENR when I see it power so much as a desk lamp. The way to shut me up is to show me some damn results already.
